    Question for everyone

    Would you spend $600-1000 on a set of front rotors that would not wear out, have incrediable stoping power for the track and street, no dust, no pedal fade, no squeel etc? Now if you don't think you would have the money or even in 3 months please don't answer yes but if its something that you would be interested in post here.

    I can buy stock front rotors for 23 dollars all day long.

    So, no.

      $1000?

      If they cost that they should last forever, and I could give them to my kids latter on

          jus for front brake rotors, right ..? thats quite a bit of coin .. maybe if it had upgraded calipers & SS lines F & R with a long lasting but aggressive pad ..
          then yes ..

            For that much these rotors better be larger than stock, and come with matching multipiston calipers.

                thats quite an impossible statement, would not wear out? how can you possibly not have a rotor wear out when to metal surfaces are touching each other, no less a street pad, combine them with a race pad and you would have a healthy bill after the season is over.

                Its a good idea but simply not possible

                  Um, rotors don't cause brake fade, or dust, or are the cause of squealing. All these are attributed to the kind of pad you buy, and there are tradeoffs between performance and "comfort".

                  Plus unless unless these rotors are made of depleated uranium they will wear out, theres no way around it.

                  Not to mention the fact that this is the most general "feeler" post I've ever heard of.

                  I'll tell you what. I've got some ocean front property in Arizona I'll trade you for these wonder rotors. PM me if interested.
